"Fashion-forward moms love to dress up their little girls with the cutest bows and outfits, and are always looking for the perfect pair of shoes to complete any outfit. Now they’ve found them with Pee Wee Pumps – infant crib shoes with a collapsible heel! They’re just like mom’s favorite pair of pumps only in a miniature size.

Babies are supposed to represent purity and innocence and heels are, in my opinion, associated with enhancing some elements of female sexuality. And we are not alone. The reactions to the high heels in the world of social media have been, er, varied - some people think they are adorable, while others have been posting very negative comments such as "WTF they can't even walk" and "What in tarnation?"
